Dr. Dre? Snoop Dog? The NFL has hit the bottom of the barrel on the half-time show. The Weekend was close but this halftime show is pathetic for anyone over 40. Was AC/DC booked up? Even Chicago would be better (they are playing here in Amarillo in March). Old guys? Sure, but Eminm? Paul McCarty and Ringo would even work. And who is flipping the coin to get things started? None other than tennis fossil Billie Jean King!  |

I'm over 50 and am looking forward to the halftime lineup. Will probably be better than the actual game. Dr Dre...yes, Snoop Dog...yes. Eminem...yes. Not sure who else is going to be there but looking forward to the old school rap icons on the big Superbowl stage.

Funny you mention that hoop- one of my buddies sends around about 20 props to a group of friends and we pick against each other. Some of them are real, some silly. Will Snoop fire one up as one of the props on our list. |

It was just background noise for me, I used the time also to take the dog out for a walk. I understand that the musical guests are not chosen to appeal to my generation and I'm fine with that.
I will say though that even when the acts were chosen to appeal to me, I only found a small number of the shows to be really good, and it would appear that the tradition of acts a bit (or well) past their prime has continued. I almost feel like if I were a top line talent and my agent called to tell me that they wanted me for the Super Bowl, I'd be like: "oh shit, I guess my career really is on the downside."

Didn't see any halftime, Im guessing Snoop didn't fire one up or I would have read about it.

Where to begin...Can we agree that Prince was the best halftime show ever? Sings Purple Rain and it starts raining! I honestly tried to have an open mind about the halftime show but that lasted about one minute. When Snoop Dog (and other male performers) started grabbing their junk...well...and as far as playing music...there was very little. Blowing into the microphone, even with (I guess) a beat of some kind...is not like a real musician shredding a fender or Stratocaster now is it?

This was in Sports Business Journal. If Coke steps in as halftime sponsor you'll probably get Taylor Swift next year.
Pepsi will renew its NFL sponsorship ahead of next season, continuing a relationship that started in '02 when the soda company signed on as the official soft drink of the league. However, its 10-year run as Super Bowl halftime sponsor ended with last week's game, and the league is taking the show's sponsorship rights to market.

Waitress: Hi. Can I get you started with something to drink? Badactor: Yes, thank you... I'll have a Coke.
Waitress: We don't have Coke... is Pepsi okay? Badactor: What? No... not at all. Pepsi is not okay!

Taylor Swift? It is an improvement over some of the last few...Is Lady Gaga available?

Cut the music and go a different way completely... an All Star Halftime Stand-Up Comedy Show.  |
